Aquatic hyphomycetes are a fascinating group of aquatic fungi. Most of them feed on dead leaves in flowing water. Their spores are usually either sinuous or four-armed to enable them to catch on to new food sources. @britmycolsoc.org.uk @funaction.bsky.social

Conservation funding “82.9% was assigned to vertebrates. … while fungi and algae were barely represented at less than 0.2%” Proud to work towards conservation of #AquaticFungi — tiny but mighty! www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Most conservation funds go to large vertebrates at expense of ‘neglected’ species

Study shows funding bias towards animals like rhino while other endangered species including amphibians and algae disregarded
